Birdsong 2013

Charcoalblue are proud of the stunning theatres we have designed. We are also deeply proud of the talented team of technicians, designers, performers and producers that deliver our peerless service. Birdsong’s co-producer Jon Woodley, and lighting designer Alex Wardle are both part of the Charcoalblue family and we are delighted to be associated with their success.

Birdsong travelled to the Marlowe Theatre in Canterbury this June as part of its UK and Ireland 2013 tour.

Charcoalblue worked closely alongside the client and the architect at the Marlowe Theatre to help them develop their vision in transforming it into a venue fit for the 21st century. We were thrilled to see it win the prestigious RIBA South East Downland Award in 2012 and are very proud to have seen Birdsong being showcased there.

Birdsong's success in 2013 has led to a further tour in 2014 - full details can be found here.

‘Part of the success of the feel of this production is due to the lighting design by Alex Wardle’

'The stage version of Sebastian Faulks’s bestseller is a poignant and heartbreaking mix that will haunt you long after you leave the theatre.. Be prepared to get a little weepy.'
